Caption For Thatcham, The Church C1955

The parish church of St Mary dates from about 1141, though much restoration work was carried out during the Victorian era.

Caption For Skipsea, The Village C1955

These people had been the scourge of Skipsea Castle in earlier times, so much so that Henry III had to demolish the castle in 1220.

Caption For Lullington, Church C1960

All that remains today is part of the chancel of a once much larger 13th-century church.

Caption For Eastleigh, Market Street C1955

Much of the town dates from between 1890 and 1939, and many of its residents were employed by the railway.

Caption For Hope Cove, 1925

Much of this bare hillside between Outer and Inner Hope has now been built upon, but the tiny church remains and the coast nearby is wild and spectacular.

Caption For Penrith, Lowther Castle 1894

This is not so much a castle, more a country house, built for the first Earl of Lonsdale by Sir Robert Smirke between 1806 and 1811.

Caption For Hitchin, The Biggin 1903

To the right of the picture is a pile of pipes, stored here temporarily during much needed refurbishment of Hitchin's sewer system.

Caption For Ryde, Union Street 1904

Much of its architecture dates from the 19th century, a reminder that the Victorians made this island their own as a holiday and residential location.

Caption For High Wycombe, A View Of The Old Town C1955

From the arches of the Georgian Guildhall the camera looks down White Hart Street. The buildings on the right replace medieval market place encroachment.

Caption For Belfast, View On Lagan 1936

It could also have been so quiet because Belfast residents had so much choice when the time came for the essential walk.

Caption For Fordington, St George's Church 1898

The much- restored church was first built in the Middle Ages, and the Perpendicular tower is 15th-century.

Caption For Cheriton, St Martin's Church 1903

Modern housing now occupies most of the area between the church and the photographer, and the rural aspect is much diminished.

Caption For Fleet, Reading Road 1903

Properties such as this gave rise to the description of 'The Blue Triangle', reflecting political affiliations of the day, and the term is still much in vogue among estate agents today.

Caption For Ebbw Vale, The Old Arch C1960

This is one of the significant relics of the industrial past of the Ebbw Vale area, and at one time a busy railway line ran over the top of this arch.

Caption For Par, The Station From Scobell 1904

On the left a wide-arched bridge takes Eastcliffe Road over the main line railway and past The Royal Hotel (now The Royal Inn), the first of three large buildings along the road.

Caption For Snodland, The Station C1960

By 1960 the population was well over 12,000, and it is much more today.

Caption For Warminster, The Minster C1955

The interior has many fine features, including part of a Norman arch reused for a small window in the north transept, an octagonal pulpit with decorative tracery and inlaid marble, and

Caption For Bakewell, The Bridge C1955

Bakewell's five-arched 14th-century bridge over the River Wye is one of its greatest glories. It is still carrying traffic 600 years after it was built.

Caption For Painswick, The Lychgate C1955

Although it looks much older, the lychgate into the churchyard was built only a century ago. Its apparent antiquity stems from the fact that its timbers were taken from the former bell frame.

Caption For Penrith, Lowther Castle 1894

This is not so much a castle, more a country house, built for the first Earl of Lonsdale by Sir Robert Smirke in 1806-11.

Caption For St Anthony, The Harbour C1960

St Anthony-in-Meneage is even more remote than Manaccan; it lies on Gillan Harbour, which is separate from the much larger Helford River and closer to the Lizard peninsula.

Caption For Hermitage, Slanting Hill C1955

This leafy approach to the village of Hermitage remains much the same today as it was in the 1950s.

Caption For Lerryn, Bridge 1893

With its old cottages, stepping stones and ancient arched bridge, it possesses a unique, almost hypnotic serenity.

Caption For London, The Embankment From Temple Pier 1890

The imposing arch is in the monumental Egyptian style. In the background is Waterloo Bridge.
